Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 566 The Mysterious Mercedes Owner

The sunlight illuminated the forest, and birds perched on the treetops, eyeing the black Mercedes parked in front of the gas station with curiosity.

"Sir, shouldn't we go and take a look?"

The black Mercedes had been parked for two hours, and the driver in the driver's seat hadn't moved an inch, sitting upright like a wooden figure.

It wasn't until the gas station employee came out to check on the situation for the third time that he couldn't help but turn around and ask, "It seems a bit conspicuous to keep it parked here like this."

"Whoosh—hiss"

"Whoosh—hiss"

The heavy breathing sounded like it was coming from inside a jar.

The elderly man in the back seat, wearing an oxygen mask, had his hands folded over and resting on the end of a cane, and remained silent for a long time.

"Should we notify the police? We've just appeared here without warning, and even if we encounter them, we probably won't be able to handle the situation."

The elderly man wearing the oxygen mask slightly raised his eyes; these words seemed to have touched a nerve with him.

"If we can't handle it, do you think those incompetent police officers can?"

"Excuse me, sir," the driver said, remaining silent.

"What time is it now?" the old man asked.

"10:30 in the morning."

"That will probably take another half a day. Those crows have been foraging at night for the past two years, and since that incident, they haven't dared to be as arrogant as before."

The driver pursed his lips; he really hadn't noticed.

If others didn't know about the undercover operation in the Metropolitan Police Department, how could he not know?

The police inspectors were all undercover agents, and they even killed one inspector and let an international criminal go free. With this level of arrogance, it's not a matter of day or night.

"Should we notify him to come?" the driver asked meaningfully.

He was very self-aware of his abilities; he was good at driving to protect the elderly, but he was not good at going head-to-head with the people from the winery.

Sorry, my strength is too weak.

"Yes, I've already notified them. They should arrive before evening. With him there, there might still be a chance to keep these crows."

The old man seemed a little agitated, and unconsciously tapped his cane on the ground twice.

"Hmm? The gas station staff are out again." The driver's eyes narrowed slightly, one hand covering his leg, the other pulling down the window.

"Hello, sir. You've been here for quite a while now. Is there something wrong?"

The staff member pointed to the repair area behind: "We have professional Mercedes tires here. Is your tire worn down and unable to climb the hill? If so, I can replace it for you directly. It's definitely more convenient than waiting for roadside assistance."

driver:.
Following the direction the staff pointed, there really were brand new Mercedes tires there.

Xia Chuan kept his eyes fixed on the driver, while glancing at the back out of the corner of his eye.

That's right, the current staff member is him in disguise.

Unfortunately, there were curtains behind it, covering everything up so tightly. It's suspicious, but it doesn't seem like Rum's style.
"Sorry, I'm just stopping to rest for a bit, I'll leave later."

The driver smiled in response, then rolled up the window without any hesitation.

"We can't stay here any longer. Let's go and come back tonight."

"it is good."

About half an hour later, the Mercedes slowly drove out of the gas station and headed towards the direction of the mountains.

Xia Chuan stood inside the gas station watching the other person leave, narrowing his eyes slightly and muttering, "Strange, not someone from the distillery."

He knew almost everyone in the Japanese branch, which didn't seem like Rum's style.

As for the boss, that's even more impossible. There was no murderous intent in the driver's eyes, and he didn't give the driver any sense of danger.

"Frank, check the owner of the Mercedes."

"Can't you see anyone?"

"No."

Judging from the degree to which the car tires sank and the way the car body swayed, there was someone in the back seat, which Xia Chuan could confirm.

"Is the Nissan still there?"

"The footage of it leaving shows it's still there. Be careful." Xia Chuan took one last deep look at the departing Mercedes, then plunged into the forest, heading towards the location Frank had provided.

Nagano is located in the heart of Honshu Island, with many mountainous and hilly areas and a large terrain. In the Twilight Villa area alone, there are large areas of hills.

We moved through the woods, following Frank's surveillance.

"Zizzizi."

Suddenly, Xia Chuan heard an electric current sound in his ears.

"Frank, can you hear me?"

There was no human voice in the headphones.

"They even brought jamming equipment? What's the purpose of activating it at this time?"

Xia Chuan became slightly wary, but did not stop walking.

His disguised face was not afraid of being discovered, and even the empty mountain forest winery could not keep him there.

Soon, he saw the so-called black Nissan.

The car stopped at the bend just before reaching the top of the mountain. Beyond the railing was a cliff, offering a wide view of the entire Twilight Villa.

"Ok?"

Xia Chuan suddenly had a feeling that the other person was Karasuma Renya.

When he bought the Twilight Villa, he thoroughly studied the surrounding hills. There were only a few locations where one could observe the Twilight Villa, and this was the best one.

He found these places by observing and confirming them from the perspective of the origin within the villa, while the distillery group was certain that they had not entered the Twilight Villa in advance!

We shouldn't have found this perfect spot so quickly.

Therefore, only someone extremely familiar with the Twilight Villa could find this location.

"Damn it, I can't get in touch with Frank."

Xia Chuan was itching to do something. Regardless of whether Karasuma Renya was inside the car, he could blow it up directly.

Unfortunately, for the sake of convenience, he only brought a pistol and smoke grenades for escape this time.

He didn't want to gamble on whether the Nissan was bulletproof; if the person got away, he would be very upset.

The situation at the gas station also worried him.

Nissan hasn't shown any intention of moving it, and there's even a bird perched on the roof.

The antenna on the roof looks modified, very similar to Gin's Porsche 356a, and may also be the kind of device that can communicate remotely.

Perhaps signal jamming is also achieved through this method.

The distance is probably limited, and it may not have just been activated, but rather it has been activated for some time. The effect only becomes apparent when he enters the range.

Xia Chuan glanced at it from afar and was about to leave when he suddenly heard the sound of a car engine.

Looking over at the sound, I saw another black car.

The black car stopped in front of the Nissan, and a person got out of the car.

Xia Chuan shrank back, completely hiding himself behind the tree.

After getting out of the car, Gin looked around and lit another cigarette for himself.

Then, he glanced back at the black car and frowned slightly.

I'm still more used to driving the Porsche 356a.
Instead of rushing to open the door of the black Nissan, he leaned against the side and looked around.

"Very vigilant," Xia Chuan commented.

"It looks like it's Karasuma Renya."

Xia Chuan left without lingering.

After finishing his cigarette, Gin finally looked away.

He knocked on the driver's side door, and a man in sunglasses stepped out. Gin then got in.

The man in sunglasses stood outside the car door as a lookout.

"My lord," Gin said respectfully, glancing at the rearview mirror without turning his head.
